Changes in Renewal Fees

Renewal Fees being Phased Out

As of January 1, 2016, certification renewal fees will be phased out as long as you maintain your certification current/active/renewed. In other words, as long as you renew your certification every year, you won't have to pay a penny. If you fail to renew, however, the renewal fee will jump to $195 (from the current $75 on the first year, and $150 on the second year).

2015 Renewal Still Required

In order to transition to the new no-fee renewal system, and issue new certification cards without an expiry date, all members will still be required to renew their certification prior to December 31, 2015.

In order to make the process easy, we are offering one single renewal fee of $50 to all members, even those whose certification expired, until December 31, 2015.

As of January 1, 2016, the fee for expired renewal will be $195, so all members are urged to take advantage of this last opportunity to bring their certification up to date.
